本文的目的是介绍一项正在进行的关于拉丁美洲和加勒比 (LAC) 地区或有关拉丁美洲和加勒比 (LAC) 地区的艾滋病文献主题内容分析研究的初步结果。进行了 AIDSLINE/OVID 文献检索，仅获取与 LAC 地区相关的医学主题词 (MeSH) - 地理术语。研究期间为1982年至1998年6月。分析了研究期间记录分布的指标，以及主题、检查标签和主题/副标题分布模式。这是通过模块化文献计量信息系统的应用程序以及 Windows 版 Biblio-Link，版本 1.2 1994-1997，研究信息系统的应用程序来完成的； Pro-Cite for Windows，版本 4.0.1 1995-1998，研究信息系统；和Microsoft EXCEL 97，1985-1998，微软公司。共获取并分析了4124条记录。按降序排列，巴西、墨西哥、海地、阿根廷和波多黎各的引用次数最多。排名靠前的 MeSH 主题标题是“风险因素”；获得性免疫缺陷综合症；性行为；支持，非美国。政府；艾滋病毒感染；结果表明，主要研究关注点集中在艾滋病的流行病学方面和传播；最近，关于疾病的预防和控制。还观察到研究从男性转向女性、从中年转向青春期。作者提供了进一步的研究方向。
The purpose of this paper is to present the preliminary results of a research in progress regarding the subject content analysis of AIDS literature, as produced in or about the Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) region. An AIDSLINE/OVID literature search was conducted to obtain only the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) -geographic- terms related to the LAC region. The period of study was from 1982 to June, 1998Indicators regarding the distribution of records throughout the years of study, as well as the subject, check tags, and subject/subheadings distribution patterns were analysed. This was done through rile application of a modular bibliometric information system, as well as the applications of Biblio-Link for Windows, Version 1.2 1994-1997, Research Information Systems; Pro-Cite for Windows, Version 4.0.1 1995-1998, Research Information Systems; and Microsoft EXCEL 97, of 1985-1998, Microsoft Corporation.A total of 4124 records were obtained and analysed. In descending order, Brazil, Mexico, Haiti, Argentina and Puerto Rico, generated the highest number of citations. Highly ranked MeSH subject headings were Risk Factors; Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome; Sex Behavior; Support, Non US. Govt.; HIV Infections; and Developing Countries.Results demonstrate that major research concerns centred on the epidemiological aspects and transmission of AIDS; and more recently, on the prevention and control of the disease. A switch of the studies from male to female, and from middle age to adolescence was also observed. The authors provide further lines of research.
